OK. We've all seen it. Gorgeous looking women in their early 20s married to wrinkly old millionaires. Paul Daniels, Michael Winner, Hugh Heffner and Bruce Forsyth come to mind. God only knows how they cope in the bedroom Well, girls, could you settle for that?

No, I never just "settled" for someone so far and not intending to change that.
Live's to short for me to be with someone I don't love and enjoy being with. Physical attraction has to be there for me, just the thought of anything else...
I prefer the money I'm spending to be mine, no questions to answer that way.

No.. The only person I have ever relied on is myself. Its worked well so far, if I ever thought about getting married again it would have to be for love
I create my own security and make my own money soooo thats out. I will never marry again and the two times I did it was for straight up love and nothing else.

How do you know the women are in it for the money only?
Aren't all the men you mentioned entertainers? Ergo, they might be entertaining.
How about if a woman's got some kind of daddy issue going on and along comes an older bloke, who not only provides security and love, but can do magic tricks, too?
I would imagine that most of those gorgeous young women did, in actual fact, have their eye on the main chance. Paul & Debbie have actually been together for over 20 years though...........so that can´t have been just greed. However, even in the street, people marry for security......what´s new????
Most know what they are like and what they want out of a man. It's self explanatory. Love or no love, some (not all) will aim for thier target where it fis best.

Only cos Paul didn't have the decency to snuff it and leave her his fortune whilst she was still unwrinkled herself. Daniels.

Sorry Jaqs but I think if these guys were gas fitters, they'd be living with wrinklies!
Off-hand I can't think of any......but I don't happen to think that Debbie is all that gorgeous either. What's yer point anyway???? You envious cos you might never be in the position of attracting these young gorgeous females unless you got lots of money???? Then I suggest you set about remedying that situation ASAP.

I have enough money saved to see me comfortably to my grave.....providing I die by midnight on Sunday.

see the banana hook me up with someone young and gorgeous and watch me dance mofo.
Nope. One of the best lessons my parents ever taught me was to always be self-sufficient. They said you never knew if something might happen later in life and you ended up on your own. (how right they were )
With that said, I had a (male) headmaster who once told me, "You can fall in love with a rich man just as easily as you can fall in love with a poor man." At the time I was offended, but in retrospect I suppose he had a point. I would never marry for money - but neither would I marry someone who was a walking fiscal nightmare. If he's not smart enough to manage the little money he has, he's not the guy for me.
A woman was telling her friend , "It was I who made my husband a millionaire." "And what was he before you married him?" asked the friend. The woman replied, " A multi-millionaire".

A co-worker once mentioned that I should try one of those millionaire dating sites just for fun and I told her that I'm not the type to take advantage of people regardless of whether he cares or not. Money is good if love revolves around material things but it doesn't buy the love I'm seeking.

So, a man whose budget is "ingo=outgo" wouldn't work for you? Hey, at least I have a balanced budget, which is more than I can say for the government!
Fortunately, there are women in the world who will go with guys with limited income. I know, because I had two (both my wives.)

No Hugger, that is specifically NOT what I said. My point was that while I don't care if he's wealthy or living on a shoestring - as long as he is living within his means and not a financial train wreck. I don't care if he has money or not, but if he is in debt up to his eyeballs it tells me he doesn't make smart choices and isn't very responsible.

marryingbfor money doesnt lead to happiness. it's all about the click, the spark. if that person you click with has money well and goos. I'd think twice though about being married to someone with financial insecurity. SOmetimes it's not even the amount of money they have but the amountbof money they impulsively spend.

I had a coworker whose family sacrificed for years (no eating out, no ordering out for food, no movie theaters, etc.), and by doing this he was able to keep out of debt and to pay off his mortgage way early. Plus, it taught his kids that sacrifices eventually bring rewards.
